Make Christmas Magical: Support the Barnardos Gifts for Kids Appeal

With only 14 days left until Christmas, Barnardos is working hard to ensure that every child in our care feels the joy and excitement of the festive season. For many families, Christmas can be overwhelming and financially difficult. Our Gifts for Kids Appeal helps provide toys, books and gift cards, which are delivered directly to our children and family centres, just in time for Christmas.  

We’ve partnered with Simply Giving, an online toy warehouse that allows supporters to browse, purchase and donate gifts directly. Every gift you choose is delivered straight to the children in our care. 

🎁There’s still time to get involved 

Corporates can sign up and create their own company-branded giving page, complete with a QR code that can be shared around with their team and community. It’s an easy way for staff to select the toys they wish to donate!

WHAT WE SEE

We see beyond the sleepover in cars and understand the underlying issues.

After escaping family violence, a parent and their child have nowhere safe to stay and are
currently waiting for refuge accommodation.
